Pokemon Legends: Z-A Guide "Side Mission 038 - Chasing Status"

This is part of our extensive guide to Pokemon Legends: Z-A

For this you're going to want to find two sporty looking folk at this location on the map. Talk to the one on the left named Maxen.

They talk about how they've been on a winning streak thanks to Status Moves.

An offer to battle is made. When you're ready talk to Maxen again.

Maxen the Jogger specializes in moves that boost his stats. He starts with Riolu (weak to Psychic, Fire, and Fairy) and then uses Meditite (weak to Fairy, Ghost, and Flying). Power on with really strong moves to take them out while they spend their time boosting.

Talk to Deb next.

Deb the Jogger specializes in moves that lower the opponent's stats. She sends out Ariados (weak to Psychic, Flying, Rock, and Fire) followed by Arbok (weak to Ground and Psychic). Again, just power it on while they're doing their status moves and you'll be good.

Mission Complete! Enjoy your 2500 Gold, 3 Protein, 3 Calcium, and 1 Power Bracer
